Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny

Now if you had a working prop to make you play like VanHalen or Angus Young I'd buy it. lol Best scene in the movie by far is the one with the kid as a young Jack Black, that was awesome.

Just out of curiosity, do you think that replica feels sturdy enough to actually play guitar with? I don't know how practical it would be, but it'd be cool to really use...[/b]

Well I tried to kick out a jam with it, and while I'm sure it could be done with some practice, I just don't think its all that practical. Its sturdy enough, but not quite sharp enough on the end. I'm less afraid of breaking it than I am of wearing it down. The plastic doesn't feel or sound especially dense.
 
just got mine, with a little nail polish remover man that black wash comes off easy, very cool prop.
 
Just an update if anyone is still looking for one. Spencers now sells these and had some on the shelf. Also, Musicfriends sells the lightup one,real pick on a strap and a 6 pack of picks.

Again, just a heads up. The light up one is larger then the one included with the CD set but not by much, looks like the stretched it so the led would fit better.

Bump, with a question...
This set (necklace, light-up version, and picks: http://shop.newline.com/cat/Tenacious-D-in-the-Pick-of-Destiny-2-Necklace-Set-with-Bonus-Picks.html )
looks cool and with a good price (I don't know if it's possible to find it cheaper), but for an international order (I'm in Italy) it will cost $46,94.
Not so pricy, but they don't accept PayPal...
So I'm asking... Do you know if it's possible to buy it on another online shop, or if someone could buy it and ship it to me? (I will pay eveything, of course:D )
Any help is appreciated:)
Feel free to PM me if you have any info;)
Thanks.
 
Anyone have a source for the light-up one and the others (except eBay)?
Especially if the shipping will be less than the price of the prop itself!:p
 
Re: Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny

i saw one at a Spencers back when the dvd came out, wasnt impressed with it at all.
 
Re: Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny

Yeah, the light-up necklace is suprisingly cheap... plastic beads on the necklace, and the plastic on the pick itself is cheap. Like, if I hadn't purchased it in a proper store I'd have been convinced I had purchased a bootleg kind of cheap. I had it for two days before one of the screws popped out, and now the threaded portion is split down the side, so nothing is staying in.

Feels like a rip-off at $14.99, I can't imagine paying more than that and feeling good about the purchase.
 
Re: Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny

Hmmm... Thanks for the review guys... But I THINK I still want one:p
Just for fun, when I'm singing with my friends, could be cool!:D

But the price plus the shipping seems too much... So if someone should find a cheap one in a store (an offer or something like that) feel free to PM me about it... ;)

Thanks:)
 
Re: Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny

My friends actually just saw Kyle Gass' band Trainwreck today, and handed him a sack after the show, which was pretty sick. If I'd brought the POD I would've had him sign it :)
 
Re: Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny

I know its been quite a few months but I must say, it was sarcasm. :love
:lol

I think he meant a sack of ganj given Kyle and JB's known fondness for the stick-icky-icky.

Wish I could have been there to enjoy it (the show and the afterparty).
